Introduction:
Em C
I had nothing to say
G D
On Christmas day
Em C G F#/D
When you threw all your clothes in the snow
Em C
When you burned your hair
G D
And knocked over chairs
Em C G
I just tried to stay out of your way
G
But when you fell asleep
C G
With blood on your teeth
Em C G
I just got in my car and drove away
G C
Listen to me butterfly
C G
There's only so much wine
Em
That you can drink
C
In one life
C G
And it will never be enough
Em
To save you from
C G
The bottom of your glass
Solo
Em C
When the state highway starts
G D
I stop my car
Em C G F#/D
I get out to stare up at the stars
Em C
And as meteors died
G D
And shot across the sky
Em C G
I just thought about your sad shining eyes
G
And I went back for my clothes
C G
When the sun finally rose
Em C G
Oh but you were still passed out on the floor
G
Listen to me butterfly
N.C.
Em
That you can drink
C
In one life
C G
And it will never be enough
Em
To save you from
C G
The bottom of your glass
